Beautiful green silk gown circa 1850s-1860s with wide sleeves and full skirt.

Deep-v neckline would have likely been worn with a scarf, chemisette, or fichu.

I have styled it with a white silk scarf in some of the photos (scarf not included).

Hook and eye closures down the front of the bodice. Mostly hand sewn. Skirt has a pocket!

+++ Measurements +++

33" bust, 27" waist, 54" total length.
 

+++ Condition +++

The dress has some obvious condition issues, but would be beautiful for display or study.

  • Holes in both shoulders
  • Fragile and shattering bodice lining
  • Wear, holes, and discoloration in both underarms
  • Scattered small holes and a few faint stains in the skirt, mostly hidden by pattern
  • Missing closures at waist
  • Some wear along the front of the bodice where the closures are

Please see all the photos and zoom in for the best condition report.
